GETTING STARTED

SYSTEM SETUP

The control keyboard can be connected with a speed dome camera or DVR. The following sections describe basic connections in a surveillance system.

CONNECTING RS-485 CABLES

To operate dome cameras, a control keyboard (or other control device, e.g. DVR) is needed to communicate all devices via RS-485 interface. The CAT 5 (Shielded twisted pairs) cables are recommended for RS-485 communication; maximum cable length for over 24-gauge wire is 4000 feet (1219 meters). If the total cable length is over 4000 feet, using a repeater to enlarge the signals is recommended. Terminal block is designed for long distance installation. Users can construct a RS-485 network through the terminal block located on the rear panel of the control keyboard. Detailed pin definition can be found on the terminal block.

RJ-11 (6P6C) CONNECTOR DEFINITION

Pin No. Definition

The RJ-11 jack is designed for demo and testing purpose, and only supports half-duplex communication. Users can construct a RS-485 network through pin 4 and pin 5. Refer to the table at right for pin definition.
